Build a Golf Cart Utility Vehicle With Free Golf Cart Plans

These 1958 plans show you how to make a battery powered golf cart. With their setup, they claim tha the engine will push the cart 20 MPH and have a range of 30 miles.

Using two electric motors suitable for general propulsion and motorcycle sprocke assemblies, the cart's divetrain is remarkably simple.

The batteries suggested are 6 volt with around 170 amp hours, wired together to create a 24 volt system. Modern 12 volt marine "deep cycle" batteries would produce the needed power and have extended battery life.
